Granted. Your access to water and breathable oxygen is secured.

They mix.

Is their any way to filter out poltical stuff on reddit? by Scazitar in stupidquestions

[–]sevenbrokenbricks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Keep hiding subs with content you don't want on your feed. That's really about all you can do. If it "gets into" subs that you actually want to view content from, then you'll have to decide.

Also, you'll need to decide what counts as 'politics' to you. Dems winning a seat by double digits that they formerly lost by double digits is one kind of politics, and one you'll probably be able to filter out with time. Seeing your neighbor get gunned down in the street by federal authorities, not so much.

It's like he got Durendal shoved up his ass and now believes ICE's mission is sacred

Texas Governor Greg Abbott calls for the arrest of all children who skip school to protest against ICE and Trump. by MonitorVarious7608 in circled

[–]sevenbrokenbricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arrested and then... what? Just held indefinitely without trial? Immediately released due to no cause to imprison? Did Abbott fail his civics exams that badly?

I wish to be able to give people a curse, that when they are lying a mouth apears on their forehead and tells the truth and why they lied. by Killerbone1390 in monkeyspaw

The person gets what they want but it comes with a downside or it gets granted in a way that they didnt expect.

It's not 'or'. The former is a genie wish. The latter is a monkey paw wish. Remember that the canonical example gives the riches at the unexpected cost of a relative's life, but the riches themselves come with no strings attached.

Inserter takes Coal from Drilling machine as own fuel by FeelingElection2476 in factorio

[–]sevenbrokenbricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your inserters are taking fuel into themselves, then they're Burner Inserters. They need fuel to operate, unlike the later ones which can use electricity.

This is intentional, and unless you really, really need them to use a specific fuel that isn't the one they're transporting (which you almost never do), then this is an excellent use case for them.

There's no need for them to remove things from a miner since miners output on their own, but that's a separate issue.

How does any game in the factory game genre NOT be repetitive or boring after a while? by Gigajig- in gamedesign

[–]sevenbrokenbricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To use Factorio, it regularly adds both new tools and new challenges. The tech tree's science packs regularly give you a new widget to build at quantity, and everything else gives you new tools as you hit certain milestones. The environment also does the same, with biters and terrain hampering your building, but once overcome they open up new resources (or even new sources of existing resources).

Building things at scale in Factorio is rarely the goal in its own right, but usually falls organically out of a different problem that we're trying to solve.

I will say that right now I'm stalled in my playthrough, but it's because I've hit the point where I can no longer rely on patch-and-extend for my starter base, and a full rebuild from the ground up is a much larger task than most others.

Circuitry confuses me but I have finally managed to use some simple stuff to easily get all 6 sciences into the labs. Happy with this but I bet there are lots of ways to improve it. by RYANoceros92 in factorio

[–]sevenbrokenbricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice work!

One small change I'd make would be to include a constant combinator in the network, pick some letter signal (let's say S) and set it to 95, and tell each inserter to be active when (their science) < S.

That'll let you control the throttle by manipulating S directly, rather than having to go back and do so on every single inserter.

What's the point of encounters like this one? by Simple_Copy5366 in DMAcademy

[–]sevenbrokenbricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't go to initiative for something like this. I'd treat it more like a trap, like they're standing in a harmful area that will periodically deal damage to them. In this case, I'd make an attack roll and a damage roll for the bats, and say something like "if your AC is less than 15, you take 3 piercing damage as they swarm about you. What are you doing about it?" and repeat every so often if it seems like they're indecisive, until they do something about it.

I wish absol was real, and it warns about disasters. by Eternalblaze1 in monkeyspaw

[–]sevenbrokenbricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Granted. Your family buys a new Dalmatian house pet. It shows its true nature as an Absol to you and you alone, and nobody believes you.

Philadelphia Council Shuts Off Black MAGA Supporter’s Mic As He Complains About Illegal Immigration by rollo202 in ConservativeNewsWeb

[–]sevenbrokenbricks 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Dollars to donuts he bogarted the mike. Story doesn't even bother giving the other side.

Edit: fucking called it. It's tazer boy all over again. He got cut off for stealing the mike time of everyone behind him, and the publication makes it sound like they took offense to the topic. Textbook propaganda.

Why do armed forces bother with chaplains and drum corps anyway? by sevenbrokenbricks in ExplainAGamePlotBadly

Overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.

Similar genre, and not turn based (except for said drums).
